What do you save for? Vacation? Check — that’s the number one most common nickname for an Orange Savings Account. Emergencies? You bet: “Emergency Fund” is the second most popular nickname.

If you haven’t seen it yet, check it out here . Similarly, we loved the sentiment in this recent column by Washington Post columnist
